tell a lie
he told elizabeth that he was in a crowd of people talking to a girl he slept with and really talked to her alone
PROCTOR: In her life, sir, she have never lied. There are them that cannot sing, and them who cannot weep--my wife cannot lie.
They must lie to avoid being hanged
He lied about seeing Abigail alone.
She lies because she is trying to protect him.
he confesses to having an affair with Abigail because he is trying to get his wife, Elizabeth or goody proctor out of prison. by telling the truth about his affair with Abigail it shows that Abigail is making false accusations about Elizabeth harming her as she just wants to hurt her lovers wife because john ultimately chose Elizabeth over Abigail. however in telling the truth about this he needs his wife to do the same. Elizabeth does not know that john has confessed so she lies to save his good name and pride, in doing so she damns them both.
